Does a stall effect gas mileage?
Thats because you have a shitty stall you dumbfuck, I didnt call your stall shitty I said shitty stalls get shitty mileage, I never directed anything at you until now, idiot. My car gets rolling good by 1100 RPM and stalls around 2600 on street tires, will stall higher with sticky tires and more power, so yeah you have a inefficient at low RPM "shitty" stall.
And he didnt ask if big cams and big gears and big shitty stalls kill your gas mileage. So yeah with all that you have your mileage will suck and you also list your car as a track car so you picked a shitty cam and stall for fuel mileage, if you pick the right stall cam etc it wont hurt the mileage near as much and thats what he is asking.
And since your so offended by the shitty stall comment what kind of gold plated sent from god stall do you have?

Look you started this ****, I said shitty converters get shitty mileage or inefficient ones or the way you drive, you came back directing **** at me calling me an *******, so if you dont like it get fucked, I never said a thing to you or directed anything toward you yet you directly call ME an *******. Hope that helps since you cant put 2 and 2 together.
Now as far as the statement above... is that supposed to insult you? No its not, ill spell that one out too, point was someone asked if converters kill your mileage, you chime in with "yeah you get about 8-9 MPG" but on your end thats because you have "everything you bought you gave no consideration to MPG" so then why the hell are you giving advice about fuel mileage. Especially since your car is a so-called "track car", another reason you shouldnt be giving advice about a street cars MPG.
Ultimately the point is someone asked a question and some people came in spreading bull ****, converters do not knock your fuel mileage down to 8-9MPG your other mods and driving style figure more into that. Now because of that the guy may never get a converter in fear of losing that many MPG
My MPG is virtually unchanged, so far on my first tank of gas I have about 105 miles at the half tank mark, basically the same as before depending on how I drive, I have been driving a bit aggressive so the MPG could be even a bit better.
Just finished my first tank of gas with the new stall converter and got 250 miles and didnt completely drain the tank, used about 14.5 gallons. thats an average of 17.605 mixed with aggressive street driving and highway driving. Once I get used to the stall and stop getting on it so much those numbers will go up.

BOSS APPROVED! A loose converter will put your mileage in the teens overnight. I was there back in 2006 and the frequent fill ups sucked. I was at the pump every 2 days. And gas prices were not 4.00 a gallon. Nowadays, I would have just given the car away.

Raising the stall speed will lose mileage in city, highway may lose 1-2 at most but it depends on the efficiency of the stall.
The city mileage is lost since every time you go from a stop or you accelerate, your converter will slip until it hits stall speed. Since very few people will cruise consistently above 3krpm, unless you are running some high set of gears then it's hopeless for you mileage wise.
The quicker you get it to lockup, the better your mileage. If you blip the throttle and break lock up for the sake of accelerating you will lose mileage. That's free revs that make noise, use gas all for a bit faster acceleration which isn't really needed when you "city" drive. Depending on your driving style you could find yourself missing 10+mpg in city.
I had a stall car before and while I loved being able to launch well, I enjoy driving my m6 car just as much.

My car has always been horrible w/ city mileage....maybe 10 or so mpg. I definitely don't drive it like I stole it but I get on it from time to time. It's suprising because I have 2:73 gears also. My car does excellent on the highway, before and after mods, around 100 miles per quarter tank which would equal to around 400miles per tank on the highway.

My highway mileage has remained unchanged from stock through the 3000 and 3600 stalls I've had.
